BMW-based Futuristic Bike Model

Klaus Beutler, owner of Beutler Design has created his very own futuristic bike model based from the BMW R 1100 GS. This unique bike retains the powerful BMW boxer engine and other parts like BMW air flow meter, combined with other upgraded tech feats from Beutler Design.

Klaus Beutler explained:
"You quickly learn to estimate the virtues of a GS on the narrow and curvy roads in our region.  You will even rarely find a rider of a modern superbike who can leave you behind with this 170 hp rocket. The 1,085 cc two-cylinder boxer remained basically unchanged, but for a better sound I have adapted the open air filters and got the standard exhaust system made shorter."
